Lyrics

Maybe it’s a sickness maybe it’s a curse
The way you left me in this house
The way I hear your voice
Silence is a killer of giants and men like me
Nothing last forever, and nothings ever free

You take what god would give you
And you smile and fade away
I slowly forget the way you even taste

Burn, burn, burn down
Burn, burn, burn down
This house is on fire

I guess I was defeated but I never lost the war
The madness that overcomes me
Like I’ve never felt before
And the blood stains on the carpet
From my hands inside the wall
They fade into the embers of a pale glow kitchen floor

You take what god would give you
And you smile and fade away
I slowly regret the way, the way that you even taste

Burn, burn, burn down
Burn, burn, burn down
This house is on fire

The wind started to pick up
And the draft began to change
I hope it reaches that cottonwood
Where I use to carve your name
These ashes drift like snowfall weightless and in need
A better man could’ve walked away but I guess I like the heat

Burn, burn, burn down
Burn, burn, burn down
This house is on fire
